WASHINGTON, December Although
/ the House was not in session to-day, a
/ number Of members were in their seats
attending TO correspondence and chat
/ tingwith one another over the committee
/ ships. Speaker Carlisle spent several
hours in his room in On effort to outline
the organization of the committees He
has had prepared a number Of cards
bearing the names OF different members
which he is endeavoring 10 assert into
committees. These cards can be readily
transferred from one committee set to
another, so that the changes are made
with facility During the day all
OF the representatives who visited
the Capitol called upon the Speaker,
either by request or OF their own
volItiop, TO express their personal
preference in assignment to committees.
Many rumOrs were current this after
noon relative to the distribution of the
chairmanships. Little credence is gen
orally given TO them. however, owing 10
the tact that many changes IN the list are
inevitable. even after 1t shall have been
advanced much nearer to completion
than it is presumed TO be at present.
Anv changes in one committee viii
involve alterations in several others
and may affect the chairman; SO that
predictions cannot be safely made. The
appointment OF the Committee on Rules,
which will probably be made in day or
two, is awaited with special interest for
the reason that the chairman OF the Com
mitsee on WAYS and Means has always
been q member of the Committee on
Rules, andthe arrangement Of Mowisons
successor on the last-named committee
will be generally regarded as tantamouut
to the selection Of the chairman OF the
Committee on Ways and Means

be moved the house which stands on q
bluff on one side of the Gap. The en-
